The context in the city of Geneva
Geneva, the central city of the canton, spreads out on both sides of the harbour and the Rhône, from the Old Town to the dense Pâquis, Eaux-Vives, Plainpalais, Champel and Servette districts. Residential buildings, often old, managed by property management agencies and subject to heritage rules, dominate the built fabric. Traffic, parking for machinery and use of public land shape every worksite.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in the city of Geneva
How long does a complete renovation in the city of Geneva take?
Two to four months for an apartment, four to eight months for a house with an extension. The quote describes each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Are an architect and a permit needed in the city of Geneva?
Simple maintenance and a renovation do not always involve the same procedures. In Geneva, leaving the structure or the layout of the home unchanged is not enough to conclude that no permit is needed. The obligations depend on the building and the nature of the work. Before starting, have your project checked by your architect, your MPQ or the department of the territory. MS Contractor SA organises and carries out the planned work in coordination with your representative. The procedures are presented on the website of the State of Geneva, on the applying for a building permit page.
What does the general contractor role include in the city of Geneva?
A single quote for all packages, a schedule, coordination of the trades, worksite follow-up and a single handover. You have only one contact person.

Yes, we carry out the plans of your architect and engineer and take part in the site meetings. Without an architect, we design with you the projects that do not require one.
